Which foolish statement? You sandwiched this sentence between two different statements. If it's the first statement, I just provided in the original post quite a few quotes from Luther, Czlvin, etc on the perpetual virginity of Mary.

If it's the second statement, I could buy that statement. Protestantism at it's core is anti-Catholicism. Now I don't mean anti- in the sense that we use it here, i.e., bigotry towards, although that usually is the case as well. I mean in terms of setting every belief against that of the Catholic Church. To the Protestant world the Catholic Church has got every single freaking belief wrong except for maybe the Trinity. I gotta believe that there is some intentional setting of PRotestant belief against the Catholic Church. I refuse to believe that the Catholic Church has gotten everything wrong for the last 2000 years.

The statement that ALL protestants believed in perpetual virginity. Posting quotes from a few men and then claiming that all believed this shows the authors ignorance and agenda.

". Protestantism at it's core is anti-Catholicism. Now I don't mean anti- in the sense that we use it here, i.e., bigotry towards, although that usually is the case as well. I mean in terms of setting every belief against that of the Catholic Church"

You are right. Anti means against. We have anti-catholics and anti Protestants because of our beliefs.

"I gotta believe that there is some intentional setting of PRotestant belief against the Catholic Church. I refuse to believe that the Catholic Church has gotten everything wrong for the last 2000 years. "

No there are a lot of things we agree on. We part ways when you part from scripture. Placing tradition on a level with scripture is something we don't agree with. We have the words of Jesus to the Pharisees to back us on this.

They tried the same thing and it didn't work then just as it doesn't work now.

Jesus didn't care how holy their lineage was. They were not to put tradition on a level with scripture. Catholics would be smart to heed this warning.
